It seems liberal democrats who won are feeling pretty good about themselves. Yes, we should put the pressure on for repeal, and maybe he will waiver, but Pelosi is still there and many of his staunch progressives. Still, press on. How “sick” and “scared” is Mike Michaud?

So, allowances must be made to have an attractive, acceptable candidate who still believes these principles. That being said, it is very sad that some Christians voted against Paul LePage on the weak basis that he was too brusque, when all others were big government, anti-life, anti-marriage liberals.
